Portis calling out B-mitch on the air
 
CP bringing it to B-mitch (on the John Robinson show) about calling out CP re: conditioning, and remarks to the press regarding his comments about the linemen. Bmitch is trying to downplay it, and CP is having NONE of it. DUDE is HOT!
John Robinson is trying to get control, but I think they are going to have to have meeting the parking lot.
CP is jacked up about his alleged lack of commitment, and dedication to the team.

Hog, are you talking about the John Thompson show?

Re: Portis calling out B-mitch on the air
 
John Robinson is trying to mediate, and CP is ready to take it outside! JR is trying to change the subject to Jason Campbell and JZ.......Smart man.
I think Portis was getting in his car and drive down to the station.

Re: Portis calling out B-mitch on the air
 
Great stuff.. Portis called B. Mitch on being excessively critical and talking behind his back rather than speaking to him man to man, Mitch tried to spin that he points out good and bad.. Mitch asked him why he didn't come up to him and express his displeasure, Portis said because we would have ended up 'scufflin'. Classic stuff, hilarious.

I'm not listening but I've heard BM talk about CP before and I agree w/ CP on this one.

But, CP shouldn't care what others say about him. 99% of Redskin Fans love the guy, but for some reason he feels slighted.

They got him cooled off a little.

B-Bitch is constantly talking shit about something or someone, good to hear someone calling him out.

Sometimes B.Mitch goes overboard but he's 100% correct on this one. Portis' comments were out of line last week. Simple as that.

So if the coach, QB, linemen or nobody else seemed to take issue with the comments either in the press or off the record-which always gets reported anyway, who were they out of line to?

If the coach, QB, and linemen DID have issue with the comments, do you honestly think they are going to tell the media about it?

That is what a locker room is for. Keep it in house and handle it in house.

If Portis had an issue, he should have addressed it internally, and not vent it to the media. It is so "Chad Johnson" to do that.

We've all seen "un-named sources said" things when someone speaks out of school.. They may not call him out specifically in the press, but if there's dissension than it's never a secret to the press. When someone says what he said, if it was a true problem, it gets out.

And that it so "Chad Ocho Cinco" to you sir. :food-smil

redsk1 09-16-2008 04:13 PM

Re: Portis calling out B-mitch on the air
 
Portis's comments were of frustration. The "media" wants to create a stir and say CP isn't the same RB. Anyone who's knows football, knows that CP doesn't have a great offensive line and has a below avg passing game. This causes the other team to key on the RB's.

Portis was probably sick of hearing this and vented. It would seem to me that people expect athletes not to vent every now and again, like they are some sort of super human. He simply sais he didn't have the holes to run thru consistently in JG's offense. If he did then you would see the #'s. Guess what, he's right!!

It was in the article as a Quote from Portis and he also said he would like to run behind a better line for one game (not in those words but thats what it meant). If you think thats not a slap in the face to the guys infront of him I don't know what is and I'm sure some lineman called him out in private.

hooskins 09-16-2008 04:48 PM

Re: Portis calling out B-mitch on the air
 
Ive listened to half of this and as much I hate Bmitch, I think CP is wrong on this one.

he is just a bit outta control and obviously emotionally. CP is clearly upset upset but Bmitch didnt do anything wrong guys. As an analyst Mitch can say whatever he wants, who cares if it is right, it gets you to listen right? mitch isnt news, he is an analyst, therefore he gives an opinion. Sorry but CP is wrong on this one.

Just listen to it.

hooskins 09-16-2008 04:49 PM

Re: Portis calling out B-mitch on the air
 
BTW CP is mad that Mitch takes shots at CP for sharing carries with Ladell, CPs comments last week about the line, etc.

EDIT: what really hurts Portis in this argument is that he is pretty much suggesting that he should fight with Mitch.

FRPLG 09-16-2008 04:52 PM

Re: Portis calling out B-mitch on the air
 
I got the distinct impression from CP's comments that he was frustrated by the injuries and having to deal with little to no passing game. He actually pointed out that he is constantly facing 8 man boxes. I didn't get the impression at all that he thought this o-line sucked. Just that it hadn't been as good as he'd like because of injuries and shuffling. The commenst about running behind another line were in the same vein. I really didn't have any issue with what he said other than I knew people would take it wrong if they wanted to.

Yeah, exactly right about keeping it in house. I'm sure Portis got some opinions from teammates/coaches behind closed doors on his comments last week. He definitely should have kept his mouth shut to the media.

As far as B-mitch is concerned- I think he's in bounds to call out Portis for running his mouth last week. But I understand why Portis got pissed about the conditioning/commitment comments. He spent all offseason here in DC working out with the team and taking on a larger role as a leader. If anything his commitment and conditioning has improved over the past year. And Clinton has worked hard for that. So if he felt like his hard work and dedication was being discounted by B-Mitch, then I he had every right to be pissed off.

B-Mitch is a pain in the ass.

Why is CP wrong though? I haven't heard this at all so I am talking out of my ass I guess but based on what has been relayed here CP is upset that BMitch is throwing bombs his way. I'd agree BMitch has the right to do so but CP has the right to think BMItch is a little bitch just as much. Contextualize BMitch's comments with his normal negativism and he gets little sympathy from me. He's a bitter guy. Bitter that the Skins cut his ass (even though they shouldn't have, I agree) and he is bent way too much against them. Does he point out positives too? Certainly but he doesn't seem to relish doing that nearly as much as pointing out the negatives. I'd like to hear someone who simply points out both and doesn't show a propensity towards one or the other.

B Mitch has been calling Portis out seemingly since the day he arrived. It's been pretty tense for a few years now between those guys.

I don't think he points out positives much, but you gotta realize on all shows there is usually one host that leans negatively, it just keeps people listening. Bmitch may be factually wrong, but he has all the right in the world to say how he feels.

Now back to the interview, listen to it all. CP keeps on interupting Bmitch, while Bmitch does not. CP threatens Bmitch, and bmitch gets a bit annoyed and tells CP not to "take it there".

CP tells Mitch he is mad about conditioning comments and that mitch should be a man and not say it on air, but say it in person. Mitch says well the same applies with Portis, if he is so pissed why not try to get in contact with Bmitch and talk about it offair, instead of bringing pointless yelling to the show? Good counter point by him.

Finally CP is taking it too far, at the end he seems to calm down and tells Bmitch, that from his side it is "squashed"(if you dont understand, look it up on urbandictionary.com but means the "fight" is over). Dont you think that is taking it too far? It is just a reporters comments, nothing to get so upset about.

Obviously CP was irked, and he had a right to be too, but it came off bad.

You seemed to leave off the part of what Portis said last week about his front line and how he never had any holes to run through and how he would like to run behind a better line for one week. BM said he should have not aired that in public and BM was right about that.

I can understand that but how'd you feel if I said you were a pretty worthless poster around here and you ought grow up a little and do a better job of not being an idiot? On top of that I think you've been a pretty large disappointment on the path for a long time and you're getting way too muchy credit for things. [B]Now I don't believe those things[/B] but when a guy is CONSTANTLY throwing shit at you I don't blame CP at all for getting pissed and calling him out. Maybe he shouldn't get all testosteroned up but I don't know that I blame him.
